John Lappen here with Foreigner’s management team in Los Angeles. I’m writing to introduce myself and to let you know that I am your marketing and promotional contact for Foreigner. I will be happy to assist you with any marketing, promo, and tour press needs for your event.

On September 29th, Foreigner will release a new three disc package exclusively through Wal-Mart. The package comprises ten or so new songs, ten of the original hits remixed by Marti Frederiksen (Aerosmith, Buckcherry), and a concert video. Mark Ronson (Grammy winning producer of Amy Winehouse) Mick Jones and Marti are the producers on the new song CD. The approved press release is attached.

The new single is now available for radio play and consumer download. The press release on the single is also attached. Please be sure to work this track with your presenting AC and CR radio stations. It can be accessed at this link:

Radio play is the key to a successful show, and the opportunity to present a new song is a real advantage. Please let me know if I can help with any contests or other promotions that will bring focus to the new song and your event. So far his year, Foreigner is # 14 at Classic Rock Radio. The band receives more airplay at the format than U 2, Tom Petty, Bon Jovi, Journey, Eric Clapton, Fleetwood Mac, Heart, Bad Company, and Bruce Springsteen. (Source:Broadcast Data Systems)

The Foreigner promotional mantra is this:

THE BRAND IS THE SONG TITLES Research has shown that the potential audience for Foreigner recognizes the song titles more than the name of the band. The hits were huge, and there were a lot of them! Always mention the songs in conjunction with the band’s name in any and all promotion that you do. Two typical ad mats are attached, and these are available for your use.

Sample TV and radio spots that we used for Foreigner/Bryan Adams shows, and a sample radio spot we are using for Foreigner only shows may be accessed form the links below. These spots illustrate the high quality of work available from our creative team at Bill Young Productions. The second link contains all other advertising support materials. Please contact Allison Lineberry at Bill Young Productions to discuss a specific TV and/or radio spot, and ad mats for your upcoming Foreigner date.

Foreigner band members are very proactive and embrace all radio and other media interview opportunities that will help the show. I will arrange these opportunities for you. All you have to do is point me in the right direction by providing me with your local contacts!

Please review the following “ForeignerFacts” They are useful for your electronic mailing

list, and media outlets as they contain information that often gets overlooked:

FOREIGNER CAN’T SLOW DOWN WITH NEW ALBUM TO BE AVAILABLE EXCLUSIVELY AT WALMART Three-Disc Set Combines New Music With Album Of Remixed Hits And DVD Legendary Group To Tour North America This Summer LOS ANGELES – Foreigner, one of the world’s most popular and enduring rock bands, will release a new three-disc collection, including a CD album of all new music, a CD album of the band’s original hit recordings, and a DVD of the band in concert and beyond. Foreigner’s latest will be available from Rhino Entertainment September 29, exclusively through Walmart, for $12.00.

Twelve tracks on the new album are produced by Mick Jones and Marti Frederiksen (Aerosmith and Buckcherry), with celebrated Grammy®-winning producer Mark Ronson (Amy Winehouse) contributing the Mick Jones-penned “Fool For You Anyway.” The title track, CAN’T SLOW DOWN, was written by Mick Jones, Kelly Hansen, and Marti Frederiksen as a tribute to NASCAR in celebration of Foreigner’s appearance at the Samsung 500 at the Texas Motor Speedway earlier this year. NASCAR fans bought so many CDs that day that Foreigner’s 2008 release No End In Sight:The Very Best Of Foreigner was propelled back into the Billboard Top 200. The collection’s second disc contains 10 remixes by Marti Frederiksen and Anthony Focx of some of the band’s most well known songs, including “Feels Like The First Time,” “Cold As Ice,” “Urgent,” “Hot Blooded,” and “I Want To Know What Love Is.” The remixes bring a new energy and sound definition to these classic songs.

The DVD captures the band performing many of its hits live in 5.1 surround sound. The DVD also contains performances filmed during the band’s recently completed European tour. Also featured is a behind-the-scenes look at the creation of CAN’T SLOW DOWN, from writing sessions in New York, Nashville, and Los Angeles to the Walmart shareholders meeting where the exclusive partnership behind this project was finalized. Foreigner has sold more than 70 million albums worldwide. The band will commence a 45-show headline trek across North America today.
